DXLink HDMI Receiver Module

TM

AVB-RX-DXLINK-HDMI (FG1010-500)

Overview The DXLink HDMI Receiver features built-in SmartScale Technology to deliver HDMI with HDCP that is perfectly scaled for each connected display automatically, eliminating the integration challenges that can occur when sources and displays have different optimal resolutions. It accepts audio, video, control and Ethernet over one standard twisted pair cable up to 100 meters away from a compatible Enova DVX All-In-One Presentation Switcher, DXLink Transmitter Module or DXLink Wallplate; it accepts all this plus power over the same twisted pair cable when used in conjunction with the Enova DGX 8/16/32 Digital Media Switchers, Enova DVX2150HD or DVX-2155HD. Mount the low-profile DXLink Receiver behind a display or above a ceiling mounted projector and control it using the built in RS-232 or IR ports. Plus monitor the connected display's settings, and send IR control signals back to the head end using the same twisted pair cable.
Common Applications The DXLink HDMI Receiver Module receives HDMI and control signals from a remote DXLink Transmitter Module, DXLink Wallplate, Enova DGX or compatible Enova DVX. The receivers built-in control ports can be used to control a destination device and the ICS Lan port provides IP an access point with used in conjunction with the Enova DGX or compatible Enova DVX. Features Only One Cable Receive audio and video while passing control Ethernet and power over one twisted pair cable SmartScale Technology Automatically responds to the display's declared EDID information and scales the video to the best resolution and video parameters for that display without manual setup; this prevents inferior video quality when sources are forced to lower resolutions to support the least capable display in the system Native NetLinx Control Everywhere - Control connected destination devices using the built-in IR and RS-232 ports Standard Twisted Pair Cable Save time and effort in installation by leveraging cost effective twisted pair cable, see the Cabling for Success with DXLink white paper for more details HDCP Compliant DXLink Direct Connection with DXLink Wallplates When DXLink Wallplates are receiving Power over DXLink* from the PS-POE-AT-TC or PDXL-2, they can be connected directly to a DXLink Receiver for a pointto-point solution
* AMX only supports the following DXLink Power sourcing devices: Enova DGX 8/16/32 Digital Media Switcher, Compatible Enova DVX All-InOne Presentation Switcher, PS-POE-AT-TC High Power PoE Injector or PDXL-2 Power over DXLink Controller.

DXLink
Transport Layer Throughput (Max) Twisted Pair Cable Type Twisted Pair Cable Length 10.2 Gbps Cat5e, Cat6/6e, Cat6A, Cat7 of UTP, SF/UTP, S/FTP, and F/UTP varieties *** Up to 328 ft (100 m)***

*** Cable runs with a minimum specification of ANSI/TIE/EIA 568A-5 and ratings of 250MHz or better may be used with DXLink equipment. However, cable run topology and environmental influences can affect the overall successful distance capabilities of these runs. For successful deployments up to 100 meters without consideration to outside variables, AMX recommends the use of shielded category cable (STP) or Cat6A (or better) versions of unshielded or shielded twisted pair (UTP/STP) for DXLink runs. For more details and helpful cabling information, please contact your AMX representative for a copy of the white paper titled Cabling for Success with DXLink. IMPORTANT NOTICE: DXLink twisted pair cable runs for DXLink equipment should only be run within a common building.
